A groundbreaking chemical cocktail has been developed in 2023 that can reverse aging in cells. During the research, thousands of molecules were tested, leading to the identification of a single molecule that shows promising results in reversing aging. If proven safe, this molecule could be available as a potential anti-aging treatment in the next five to six years. Researchers are also considering incorporating this molecule into skincare products for easier application. The effectiveness of the molecule is being tested on mice to demonstrate its potential lifespan-extending effects.
Is aging a disease that can be cured? Neil deGrasse Tyson and cohosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly discover the field of epigenetics, the Information Theory of Aging, and curing blindness for mice with Professor of Genetics at Harvard Medical School, David Sinclair.
